Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testAchieve lasting hydration and balanced skin with Ilso Daily Moisture Softening Lotion, a lightweight yet deeply moisturizing lotion designed for all skin types. Enriched with Betula Alba Juice, Vitamin Tree Water, and Hyaluronic Acid, it delivers intensive moisture and nourishment while forming a protective barrier with Ectoin, Ceramide, and Arginine to lock in hydration all day long. Its slightly acidic pH (5.5) maintains your skin’s natural barrier, promoting a healthy, plump, and glowing complexion. The translucent, milky formula absorbs effortlessly, leaving no stickiness, and is perfect for year-round use.
Daily Moisture Softening Lotion is a cushioning lotion from Ilso. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 30 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. It contains both silicones and oils, a combination that usually finishes smooth and slightly satin and sits well under makeup. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate and Butylene Glycol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Butylene Glycol and Ethylhexylglycerin.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry, Combination (dry), Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control, brightening and tone and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, microplastic-free and sulfate-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
